I know that, but if I do that my entire site dies. If I have it like it is, its working. But I cannot edit the usergroup permissions. It errors out due to that line. So I need to know how to change that number.

USERCP_SHELL, where is that, im running vBulletin Version 3.0.3 and i cant find it. if someone could please help me, id greatly appreciate it.

[mixylplik3]

This looks great. I also have Photopost and will implement it when vBG supports it! :up:

@TunerNetwork

If you login to admin, then click Styles & Templates > Style Manager > then from the drop down menu click edit Templates for the style you are using. Then scroll down the list to User Control Panel Templates > USERCP_Shell is there. Double click it and it will bring up the window to edit it. Once complete hit save at the bottom.

Can someone please direct me to the post with the code so you don't have to have GD installed to get the thumbnailing to work? I was hoping Magnus would have finished the new version that didnt require GD and had multiple garages.. but that was two months ago when he said he was testing it out.. and nothing has come since.. =o(

Yeah, me too. I've been waiting for version 3.2 before I install. Really need the multiple garage feature. :disappointed:

IS there going to be a 3.2 ?

[MayhemSI]

This would be perfect if there was an option to write the files outside of the database to a directory or to a seperate database. My vB database is already 600+ megs and growing and doesn't need to be more bloated... anyone figure that out yet?

Hi,
Urgently need your help/suggestions. Running vb3.0.3. and installed VBGarage without any problem. But after one day it started:

"Can use VBGarage" is disabled for registred members from time to time. I don´t know if it is after someone registred at the forum or if it is a Cron job that disables it. It has happen also with moderator group. Ivé enabled "Can use VBGarage" in usergroup manager level and general settings as well.

Otherwise i must say it works great.

Anyone had this problem in the past? Or could pinpoint out an direction where to look or how to do? Done all system/DB checks within the VBadmin.

ENV: Apache 2 - Mysql 3.23 - PHP 4.3.4 - VB 3.0.3 - VBGarage 3.11 downloaded 4 days ago.
